Violent Crime Is A Solved Problem -

The Trouble Is With Socialism, Which Resembles A Form Of Mental Illness More Than It Does A Philosophy. Socialists Get Bees In Their Bonnets. And Because They Chronically Lack Any Critical Faculty To Examine And Evaluate Their Ideas, And Because They Are Pathologically Unwilling To Consider The Opinions Of Others, And Most Of All, Because Socialism Is A Mindset That Regards The Individual And His Rights As Insignificant, Compared To Whatever The Socialist Believes The Group Needs, Terrible, Terrible Things Happen When Socialists Acquire Power.

If Conservatives Really Believed In Individual Liberty, As They Endlessly Claim And If They Used Both Halves Of Their Brains Then They'd Be Libertarians. Instead, They Sabotage Themselves, And Their Cause, By Constantly Generating One Spurious Reason After Another To Deprive Other People Of Their Freedom.

Possibly Worst Of All, From The Standpoint Of The Dedicated Enemies Of Freedom, The Internet Is A World That Libertarians - Having Been Marginalized For Three Decades By The Establishment Media - Have Made Their Own, Almost Without Effort.
